View Article  Contest time -- pick the Duke-Maryland score

If you would like a three month pass to the premium newsletter, send your Duke-Maryland pick in!  The closest one to the exact score will take the prize, but you have to be closer than my pick in the preview which will be up shortly:)

The scoring system is simple ... 1)  you must pick the winning team.  2) it will be the total number of points off the score.  EXAMPLE - Duke 69 Maryland 68 is your pick.  The actual score is Duke 76 Maryland 73.  You would be 7 off on Duke and 5 on Maryland for a total of 12 points off.  The person with the lowest total points off wins.

The picks must be in by 6:45 EST.  They may be sent to watzonebdp@gmail.com.  The previous contest winners and answers will be announced tomorrow afternoon, as will the winner of this contest.  Good Luck!

The prize is a 3 month membership ...   more »

View Article  Red Auerbach and Duke
 

The late Red Auerbach, voted the greatest coach in NBA history, was on the Duke basketball coaching staff during the fall semester of 1949 and was considered a potential successor to then-head coach Gerry Gerard, who had been diagnosed with cancer.  But Auerbach left Duke for a pro job before ever coaching in a game for the Blue Devils.

Chuck Daly (1964-69) and Hubie Brown (1969-72) were both Duke assistant coaches who did coach in games at Duke.
